Authentic '50s-era Tele Tones
Players who demand true-to-life '50s-era Tele tones will find everything they require in the Seymour Duncan Vintage '54 Tele Set. The Vintage '54 Tele Lead pickup exhibits a classic sound that's ideal for old-school rock, blues, and country. Its hand-ground Alnico V rod magnets include a raised D and G, plus a vintage output wind, serving up a bright, well-defined high-end response that tackles plucky leads and fast-moving chords with equal aplomb. The Vintage Tele Rhythm pickup includes a hand-assembled, lacquer-dipped Forbon bobbin; it's wrapped with black cotton yarn and employs vintage-style waxed cloth hookup wire, a copper-plated steel bottom plate, and wax potting for squeal-free performance. For a Tele neck pickup that's warm enough for rhythm playing yet percussive enough for chicken pickin', you can't go wrong with the Vintage Tele Rhythm pickup. To tell you the honest truth: the Tele aficionados here at Sweetwater are blown away by the twang, bite, and bark of the Seymour Duncan Vintage '54 Tele Set.
